Decided to do a brisket for Easter. Bought a nice SRF brisket and went with the Beef and Game rub. The cook went really fast, total of 5 hours ready to wrap at 2.5. Since it was done so early, planning on a 7 hour cook, it got a 3 hour rest and 30 minute reheat at 160. Had issues with the pit, it was holding at 290 for the first two hours, then varying from 250 -280 the rest of the cook. Don't know what changed, other then adding the ash pan and a deck protector. Used 60/40 pecan and hickory. Had a decent smoke ring and smoky but not overbearing. Very tender and flavorful. Non was left for leftovers so I would say it was good cook.
